Subject: What job/career have you always wanted but never got there?

Written By: quirky_cat_girl on 05/11/05 at 8:38 pm

I have always wanted to star in a broadway musical.....I love the theatre and singing....and I think if I would have had some vocal training from when I was younger..I could have had a shot at having an acting career....


I also love to write and take pictures

This is a bit off topic but have you ever been to the circus and seen the guy who follows the elephants around with a wheelbarrow and shovel?  ::)

That was my dream, too. In fact, in my high school yearbook it says Ambition: Actress. But reality set in and I really didn't want a career of waiting tables.  ::)  But now, my "dream job" would be a resteraunt critic for some magazine or newspaper. They would pay for my food and I would write up a column.

Unfortunately, there aren't too many GOOD resteraunts around here.  :(  I would have to "the city" which is about 20 miles from here.

I always wanted to be a pilot (heilcopter or fighter) in the military but I never could because my vision is terrible.

I always have loved radio so it makes sense that I should have become a DJ, right? Well, I was always SO shy but I tried finally, last year. I made a demo tape for a local Classic Rock Station...they really liked it and called me in for a reading. Problem is that I have mild dyslexia :-\\ Now I'm working with a really nice lady (Sherry) at another station helping her with research and production work. I think that's as close to a microphone that I'll ever get.  I'm alright with it though. It's really sad to see how little control DJ's actually have anymore. You have to play crap the higher ups tell you to and you can't really be personal with the audience anymore. It's more like being a robot nowadays :-\\

I restart work for a great lady named Julie on Monday. She runs a flower shop and I'll be doing delivery :)

I've always wanted to open a cute little gardening shop. I love growing plants and flowers and playing in the dirt!  ;D

Yeah I thought of radio once. But the job just seems way to restricting (you play what some guy higher up picks out, and basically what you say between songs is done for you too). If it wasn't for that, then radio would be where I'd be.  ;)

If I could've been a DJ back in the 70's or even the early 80's...before all the "Control" crap started....oh well :-\\
